My guess is that the code contribution was tested with the
meson-build-system module imported correctly. However, the actual commit
or patch was created without the module import line.

When reviewing patches just by reading them, it's easy to miss mistakes
like this one.

This should be fixed in commit 4382cef28cb6de4b2b505788b759b0fe4f8ea603

Thanks for the reports!
